- The study analyzed 2,853 people in Sweden's BAMSE birth cohort.
- Participants with any recorded antibiotic use had 1.5 times the odds of IBS at age 24 after reported adjustments.
- Odds estimates increased with the number of antibiotic prescriptions, but the observational study cannot prove causation.
